Is it worth buying an iBook these days?
I will in all likelihood make a MAC laptop my own in a few weeks and am torn between the MacBook Pro and the iBook. The MacBook is obviously much more powerful but plagued by many problems that I would rather stay away from. In light of that, is it work buying an iBook then? I like performance and want this Laptop to take me through Grad School. I am running applications such as MATLAB or LabVIEW which are fairly power hungry. A maxed out iBook is still $1000 cheaper than the MacBook configuration that I would desire, but how is its performance? Should I perhaps stick around and wait out until the MacBook Pro issues are resolved?
Thanks for all and any input.
Regards,
Christian
